Radish - Fire Candle (Raphanus sativus) is a striking variety known for its vibrant, scarlet-red roots and crisp, mild flavor. This radish brings a touch of heat in color without the intense spiciness that some other radishes can have. It's perfect for adding both color and subtle flavor to your garden and dishes.

 

Features:

Appearance: Fire Candle radishes have a beautiful deep red color with white tips, resembling the shape of a candle. The roots are smooth, medium-sized, and often more elongated compared to other radishes, making them an eye-catching addition to any garden.

Flavor: These radishes have a mild, crisp flavor that’s not overly pungent, allowing them to pair well with other vegetables in salads, pickles, or sandwiches. Their flavor remains refreshing and juicy, offering a delicious balance of heat and sweetness.

Texture: The flesh is crunchy and juicy, providing a satisfying bite when eaten raw. Fire Candle radishes hold their crispness even when harvested later in the season.

 

Uses:

Culinary: Ideal for fresh eating, such as adding them to salads, sandwiches, or served with dips. They can also be pickled to preserve their fresh crunch or sautéed gently as a side dish.

Health Benefits: Radishes, including Fire Candle, are low in calories and packed with vitamin C, antioxidants, and fiber. Their anti-inflammatory and digestive benefits make them great for overall health and wellness.

 

Planting Instructions:

Soil: Fire Candle radishes prefer fertile, loose, and well-drained soil. The soil should be free from large rocks, which can stunt root development.

Planting Time: Best planted in the cooler months of early spring or late summer. For optimal results, plant them in soil temperatures of 50 °F to 70 °F (10 °C to 21 °C). Avoid hot weather, as it can result in woody or spongy roots.

Spacing: Space seeds about 1 inch apart with rows spaced 6 inches apart to ensure that the radishes have adequate room to grow without overcrowding.

 

Growing Instructions:

Sunlight: Fire Candle radishes prefer full sun, although they will tolerate partial shade. Aim for at least 4-6 hours of direct sunlight per day to ensure the plants develop strong roots.

Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist throughout the growing season, but ensure it is not waterlogged. Proper moisture helps the roots grow uniformly and prevents them from becoming pithy.
